With both sides out of the reckoning for qualification to the quarter-finals there's just the bragging rights on offer in round five for these two French clubs. Bayonne and La Rochelle have struggled in France's Top 14 this season and were both in the bottom two at the end of 2014, although Bayonne's one-point win over Lyon last week lifted them up the table to 10th. Top 14's bottom club La Rochelle beat Bayonne 25-13 in round two but were comfortably beaten twice in their double-header against Exeter Chiefs. Their last win in the league was a narrow 19-15 victory over Grenoble at the end of December. Despite the small stakes, they'll be looking for a win to inject some life into a dismal season.
